Sorry, but I missed my own hat tip to Shraga Elam of Switzerland. Got to put the record straight.
Nutty or not, I side with our ambassador on this.
California is also a major pistachio producer, so maybe he’s smearing Iran in the interest of US business. Nothing new there.

Is there some reason Israel can’t raise it’s own pistachios? Or are the trees already planted, and waiting a couple decades to mature?

@zhu bajie: Good question. Maybe one of my Israeli readers will comment.

Probably settlers are torching or digging up the trees as I write!
